Meh, i agree with some of the stuff he said but i think some of the things that makes android so special are the same things that piss me off about it. Sure you can customize everything about it but damn, is there such a thing as too many options?

[Geor!]

No.

Too many options for the below average mobile user

i agree, it's a cool phone and it can do cool shit, but i just want something to talk/text/surf porn with lol. the iphone does that easily and smoothly

sorry we all can't be super cool hackers with our rooted/custom hard drive/custom operating system/custom home lock screen/custom keyboard fonts/custom custom home screen android phones

Yes you can.

Yes you can.

ugh.. i was?

i had one of the first android phones, the htc hero with sprint. when it wasn't freezing up on me or lagging it was an awesome phone i must admit, but the freezing/lagging is what made me switch to the iphone. i heard later on that if you rooted it and other stuff it got rid of the lag/freeze, but i had already switched. hell to be honest i would easily say that when it was working just fine it was almost as good as my iphone4 i have now. and i got rid of that hero at least 3 years ago

winmo5, to hero, to iphone3gs, to htc evo and a whore house full of android phones since. (thank you best buy for no questions return policy).

Loved messing with a friends g1 so much that i got a hero. Hated my hero, even flashed, but only because of the screen size.

Finger blasted each one of them about 4 knuckles deep. Android is easy to figure out and customize with the amount of forums out there. All someone has to do is know how to read.

Oh, and maybe use terminal/command prompt.

I know it's not the right outlook, but i think of people who hate android as the kind of people who work on a computer all day, but have no idea what to do with it when an error pops up, or a program isn't loading/or crashing on them.

I'm on my 4th android phone, and they're all pieces of shit so far. Laggy, buggy, unstable, horrible on battery... The last two were samsungs, so that didn't help.

The only problems I've had with android have been ASUS hardware related, not OS related.

My phones have been fine, except for physical damage caused by me.

This can be fixed by not buying the cheapest phone on the shelf. It's all about hardware and usually has little to do with the OS itself.

Mine is okay but it is only Galaxy S1 phone. I still have another year before my upgrade and depending on what is out there as far as the Galaxy SIII offers VS the iPhone 5 I might switch, I might not. I don't need a 5" screen so the 4" on the iPhone 5 will be fine. That's what I'm used to right now.
